Great find!  Literally a few years to the great explosion of Snooker popularity in the 80's.  Thanks for posting

I used to work with a lad who could regularly knock in centuary breaks in practice but as soon as you put half a dozen people watching he couldnt pot a ball. He had all the skill to be a professional but he couldnt get over been in front of an audience.

Amazing to think Steve Davis was already playing on the circuit that year.
